question for interceptor owners I recently installed an Interceptor gauge in my Z28 (LS1, A4) and I'm getting a weird "fuel level/percentage" readout. It shows a number near "1000" on a full tank and then slowly goes down with the fuel level. I asked Aeroforce if this was correct (i.e., if the readout is meant to be translated to a percentage, like 1000 being 100% tank capacity and 640 being 64% capacity) and they only responded that it may not be a supported parameter. However, it does seem to correspond to the actual fuel level. Wondering what does anyone else's gauge read like?
I don't have one, but w/reviewing how the tank indicates, it's not perfectly linear. you ever notice how the gas gauge goes a while (maybe 80-100 miles before coming off full) and then suddenly drops to near half, sits there a bit and then drops again?
I have one and mine functions correctly. Although it doesnt read 100% when I have a full tank, its around 97-98. Have you set the annunciater incorrectly? Go through the installation manual and verify that your settings are correct. The only parameter that doesnt read on mine that I wish did is the oil pressure.

Thanks guys, I haven't set the annunciator at all... I thought that was only for use of the shift/warning light function?
Duffster, from what I understand the problem comes from the shape of the fuel tank. So the gauge tends to drop more quickly than you'd expect the farther down the fuel level goes.
